What's this for??

[kitbit]

...a small fold up spade?? Everyone keeps saying 'have you got your camping spade yet' and I'm baffled. Am not going to need to dig a toilet as far as I'm aware, is there some secret spadery thing I'm not aware of that will take me by surprise on the first night?!

Clubbing spiders to death, maybe....????

...or for getting loose earl grey tea leaves out of the doulton teapot??

ooh yes the camping spade....

no idea sorry....

i had a small fold up spade when i was in the TA. It was so when we wereon manouvers we could bury our turds

Arf FS&H!

Ah, so it is indeed a poo thing. And there was me thinking I would be expected to do some light weeding or similar...

Definately for pooing.......but it is really bad form to use it on sites where there is toilet facilities
